The thermodynamics of phase equilibrium [PDF]
Annals of Physics, 1961 Abstract Thermodynamics is usually subdivided into a theory dealing with equilibrium and into one concerned with irreversible processes. In the present paper this subdibvision is carried further and the Gibbsian thermodynamics of phase equilibrium is distinguished from the thermodynamics of Clausius and Kelvin.

The statistical thermodynamics of equilibrium [PDF]
Annals of Physics, 1963 Abstract A statistical thermodynamics is developed in terms of extensive variables (additive invariants) distributed over a cellular division in space. In general, this distribution is governed by randomness and by correlations. The present theory, however, deals explicitly only with randomness, although correlations are implicit in the so-called ...

Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics View on Kinetics of Autocatalytic Reactions—Two Illustrative Examples [PDF]
Molecules, 2021 Autocatalytic reactions are in certain contrast with the linear algebra of reaction stoichiometry, on which rate equations respecting the permanence of atoms are constructed. These mathematical models of chemical reactions are called conservative.

Thermodynamics “beyond” local equilibrium [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001 Nonequilibrium thermodynamics has shown its applicability in a wide variety of different situations pertaining to fields such as physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering. As successful as it is, however, its current formulation considers only systems close to equilibrium, those satisfying the so-called local equilibrium hypothesis.

Local Equilibrium Approximation in Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics of Diffusion [PDF]
EntropyLocal equilibrium approximation (LEA) is a central assumption in many applications of non-equilibrium thermodynamics involving the transport of energy, mass, and momentum.

Local non-equilibrium thermodynamics. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2015 AbstractLocal Shannon entropy lies at the heart of modern thermodynamics, with much discussion of trajectory-dependent entropy production. When taken at both boundaries of a process in phase space, it reproduces the second law of thermodynamics over a finite time interval for small scale systems.

Kinetic equilibrium and relativistic thermodynamics [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2011 Relativistic thermodynamics is treated from the point of view of kinetic theory. It is shown that the generalized Jüttner distribution suggested in [1] is compatible with kinetic equilibrium.

EQUILIBRIUM THERMODYNAMICS OF LATTICE QCD [PDF]
The Origin of Mass and Strong Coupling Gauge Theories, 2008 Lattice QCD allows us to simulate QCD at non-zero temperature and/or densities. Such equilibrium thermodynamics calculations are relevant to the physics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions. I give a brief review of the field with emphasis on our work.
